; q ! Bar OSHAWA ink 1, May 16, 1964 _ Mother's Day ' Theme of UCW May Meeting The theme of 'Mother's Day' was used for the devotions at the May meeting of Northmin- ster United Church Women, held a Wednesday, in Remembrance Mrs. Herbert Chesebrough conducted the devotions assist- ed by Mrs. Harold Hawkshaw. Prior to showing a film strip entitled "Starting With Me", Mrs. Hawkshaw enjoined her listeners, each to ask herself, 'Am I a Good Mother?' The qualifying questions were: "Are we giving our children the good things of life that we can't Buy? Are we wanting to change the evils that we dislike in the world? Are we happy sitting back on Mother's Day, thinking how good we are? Are we re- sponsible mothers? Are we loyal, or do we complain outside our home about our husband or children?" Mrs. James Semple, presi- dent, conducted the business session. Thanks were expressed to all who had helped with the dessert luncheon and _trav- elogue. It was announced that) an auction sale would be held} on the church parking lot at 6) p.m., Wednesday, June 3; that} Father Berdau't would be the guest speaker when all the units| were invited to attend a meet-} ing on Wednesday evening, May} 20 Mrs. R. B. Galbraith, Chris- tian stewardship secretary, re- ported on the stewardship of scientific knowledge. She ex- plained that in spite of the fact science was linked with gad- gets, automaion, outer space and destruction, actually it was science that made life more abundant.-She said in part, "Sci- ence produces better rice, bet- etr wheat, better food to feed the world's hungry .. . cures or eases diseases... Church used medical science to heal men, women and children not reached by other agencies ... In Hong Kong and Korea, United Church dollars and mis- sionaries are attempting to meet the physical and spiritual needs of thousands of refugees and disaster victims." Quitting Too Soon Is Easy Acceptance Of Personal Failure By ROBERTA ROESCH You can't expect everythihg to go smoothly the first week you try something new! This is something to remem- ber, too, since some of the women with whom we talk tell us they give up on projects al- most before they begin. Pre- arranged plans don't work out. Discouraged, they call it quits. Here's just one example. "A month ago. I decided to try a fling at working," one reader wrote, "and before I be- gan I tried every suggestion in the book to get myself off to the right start. "For instance. I made out a written schedule fitting in 'all my activities--and I've even heard you suggest that! But when I went to work and tried the schedule nothing fell into place. "TI took a job because I wanted to accomplish things. But after two weeks of getting nowhere either at home or on the job I just up and quit." Another woman with home- based work told us a similar story. "For at least a year, I've) been going out of my mind with) nothing to do but take care of| children and housework," she) confided. 'Finally I decided to} make use of my college major) and give piano lessons three} afternoons a week. ALL MIXED UP "But somehow working from| home, minding the children and} taking care of the house got all| mixed up, and all my 'projects' ran into each other. "For example, instead of get-| ting my housework done on) schedule, I'd get so many phone} calls about prospective students} that I'd spill have dishes in the) sink when the clients arrived) for lessons. | "Then, to make the situation) worse, my own children kept in-| terrupting me during lessons in- stead of doing what I'd planned for them. | "The project lasted less than} three weeks. Nothing fell into} line." Nothing ever falls into line} until you give it a chance, and} giving things only a matter of} weeks is not a fair fighting chance. | How can you know what's) ahead for you when you give 'xp before you start? And how can you ever get results. when you don't want to wait or to work? Someone once said -- and rightly--that when we feel this way we ought to be like the farmer and take a lesson from him. He knows he'!l have to wait awhile for his harvest when he plants. | So even when things don't go just right, he waits and works and hopes--just as the rest of us have to do when life gets out of bound! OBTAINS RIGHTS LONDON (CP)--Lady Hoare, chairman for the fund for tha- lidomide children, flew from) London to Moscow with a £10,- 000 cheque which was given. by an anonymous donor. The money was to be used to pay the Soviets for the right to man-} ufacture in Britain a_ special electronic artificial limb.
